Okay....so checking the mail today and I get an invitation to a wedding for my cousin. We haven't spoken to each other in years....I'm kind of the black sheep .
Anyhow....I'm thinking as I open it....great, I'll put it on the calendar and start searching for a gift.
Well, it's postmarked the 20th and their wedding is the 30th....HUH? And they've only requested gift cards.
I'm hosting a baby shower that day, we've had it planned for a couple of months, so I won't be able to make it. But isn't it bad etiquette to send out invitations this late?
Should I try to budget a gift card for them at this late date.....I can't imagine a lot of people being able to make it if invited this late in the game....but then again maybe I was invited later so I couldn't come?
Oh and again, I'm kind of the black sheep and they never come to our events, never send congrats on babies or adoptions....etc. So not sure why they even invited me really.
